Description
Barcelona reveals its best food in unassuming places: down side streets, through low doorways, or at established bars where regulars know the menu by heart.
On this tour, you follow the city’s culinary soul through the Gothic Quarter, El Born, and Barceloneta. The experience includes five stops, six food tastings, and three drinks selected for their character, history, and flavour.
You’ll drink wine the Catalan way, taste street food that predates tourism, and finish with a traditional dish from the fishermen’s quarter beside the sea.
Along the route, see a medieval church built by hand, a street named for dyers and tanners, and a war memorial that explains why Catalans wear red. Groups are small, with no more than 12 guests.
